Whether it's zooming in on the minutiae of a dissected frog, displaying math examples in 3D, or viewing classroom artwork, Epson is asking how document cameras in the classroom have been beneficial teaching tools.

"Document cameras are undeniably a valuable teaching tool and we have added many powerful features to our latest document camera," said Sara Kim, associate product manager, K-12 Education Marketing, Epson America, in a prepared statement. "We hope many educators will share their innovative ways of utilizing document cameras in their classrooms."

Submissions will be judged on "creative use of document cameras in the classroom (50 percent), practicality of implementing the idea using real-life examples/application (25 percent), and impact of using document cameras on student learning (25 percent), " according to a news release about the contest.
